Re: not on the wholesale level, really?

It made sense to me, I had trouble reading your post though.

I think the basic point and ideal I really agree with is the internet is not an infinite "thing". Mainly money limits how big and how fast it is. Everybody has to pay some body to connect to the internet somewhere. Even tier 1 providers have enourmous costs.

Now, what I got from the post was this... The internet is not "upgrading". For that to happen everyone in the world would have to upgrade. That means more cost in a world when everyone feels entitled to pay less. We want more out of the same old internet. It is the same as loading up your old 88 chevy with 10 fat people, not going to go well no matter how much you want to move those damn fat people.

Sorry. I thought English was read in all countrys. (least you got my point, i dont care about the grammer part)

I was confused on how ayone can think they can filter out specific content; even child porn is still running rampant on the web.

"It is the same as loading up your old 88 chevy with 10 fat people, not going to go well no matter how much you want to move those damn fat people."

Actually, that analogy is more so tied to their marketing and research then actual real world transmission of data. How can gigz, terabytes an such worth of data being flowing all over the net, and I still have 14 ping in my FPS shooter? Im not feelings the "slowdown" these guys wanna make you believe will come. Also, its not our fault their still using 88' Chevy's as their point of refernce.
